Father & Son Sledding Buddies

Looking to hook up for some riding with someone who also brings their early teen along to Revy. I've been riding there for years and now am riding with my son who has been riding his own sled for the past couple of years (Polaris 800 w 151, now a new Nytro w 153). He's getting pretty good and can definitely hold his own for the most part getting back to Turbo, up Keystone, tree riding at Sale, etc. My regular riding buddies are a great bunch but they don't have kids that ride so some company for him would be a plus. Would be interested in joining up to have fun and potentially even split some of the trip costs. Let me know or PM me.
See you on the hill!

JJ. My father (BAD ASS) and I ride together. We ride with another Father son team (BIGFOOT and the Champ). BF and BA are brothers... Lots of good times and good memories! I'll send you a pm next time we plan to ride... We all ride polaris... Not biased, we have lots of friends and ride with others that ride everything else too!

Re: Father & Son Sledding Buddies

Thanks GRD! Great pic posted by Bigfoot. I would post one of my son from the weekend of Nov 15th but I have no idea how to do it? Any advice on how or where I can get help to figure it out? I tried clicking on the "Insert Image" button but I don't have a URL (don't think so anyway).

I used to ride Polaris for years from a 1976 Cobra 440 to the last one being a 1994 Storm. Tried pretty much everything else since then and just switched to Team Blue this spring. I'm thrilled with my T-Apex and the Nytro has been a nice step up for my son as the Phazer MTX just was not even close to keeping up. As far as I'm concerned they are all great as long as they work and get you there and back! Doesn't matter what brand when they are on the end of a rope and they are all heavy when stuck in 6 feet of powder. The trick being of course is to not get stuck...

Use the paperclip to attach a picture if you have no url link.

Re: Father & Son Sledding Buddies

Thanks GRD and Bigfoot for the pic advice. Hopefully this works and you can see the picture of Ty on his new Nytro. Instead of a lightweight sled, turns out you just need a lightweight rider! Something I am NOT... thus the turbo.

Re: Father & Son Sledding Buddies

Here's a pic of Ty on his Nytro. Instead of a lightweight sled I guess a lightweight rider works too. He actually found it very easy to pull over for side hilling as did my buddy when he pulled it too far over after switching from his '04 Rev. Hope the pic works this time!Tynytro.jpg

Re: Father & Son Sledding Buddies

Nice that you can enjoy sleddin with your family Jim. They will remember it forever I'm sure.
MIne are 11 and 14 and both riding phazers.....one boosted at the moment. They go to Revy with me a few times a year and we usually have a blast.
Glad you are enjoying the snow with the kids.
